New @statesman:
Marcus Spears Jr. will be tested sooner-or-later as a 17-year-old freshman. He’s yet to meet his match through three games at Texas, where he and a collection of freshman are off to a hot start on a deep Longhorns’ roster.

New @statesman:
Raleek Brown has two receiving TDs in the last two games. One 1-on-1 wheel route, one freebie out of the backfield. Both TDs represent growth in Arch Manning’s processing, as well as his relationship with his lead running back.

Maraad Watson’s 61-yard scoop-and-score lit up a group chat of 20+ coaches in Irvington, New Jersey last Saturday night. It also completed an 18-month journey for a northeast prep star and Syracuse standout now in the SEC.
“I told him, ‘things just got a little serious now, man.’ This isn't Syracuse, New York no more. You're in Texas now. Kids are bred to play football down in Texas.’”

New @statesman:
Arch Manning took 20 sacks in 8 SEC games last season. He’s taken 20 sacks in 5 SEC games thus far this season.
Texas’ QB is culpable for a portion of his sack totals. But communication issues up front continue to add to Manning’s beating.

Steve Sarkisian on the 5 sacks, 8 additional carries and 1 bloody hand for Arch Manning against Mississippi State:
"I don't want [Manning] to have to endure that. I don't want a bloody hand and him getting sacked five times. That's not a recipe for success. Is he going to run it some? Yes. Do I think that's part of his game? Yes. But there's a line we got to be careful we don't cross over with him, because we need him as healthy as he can be moving forward."

New @chron — Will Anderson Jr. cried as a teenager when moved from running back to defensive end. He cried tears of joy over his contract last week.
Texans DC Matt Burke isn’t surprised by Anderson’s tears. He praised the emotional intelligence of Houston’s young leader on Tuesday.
“I love the fact that he just plays with pure emotion. Joy, thankfulness, tears of joy sometimes pregame.
“I know if I look back and he's having one of those moments during the anthem I'm like, ‘ah, this is going to be a good one for sure.’”
